Hello, HN!

Long-time listener, first-time caller here.

Tool TL;DR aims to answer common questions that come up in software development such as "why do I need this tool? what's the hype about? how does it compare to this other tool I use?" as well as questions from beginners such as "what are the kinds of tools out there? where do I even use this tool? why would someone need to start using it?"

With short, layman's terms explanations of these tools and their respective categories that they fall under, anyone from novice to an experienced engineer can understand the growing software tool landscape. Since it's also a wiki, the same people can contribute and help others understand too.
